WoWed By Zones

We've got a long one today!  The Barrens is a truly massive zone to the point of being THREE zones to talk about, and not just two - talking about the nature of the Horde and it's place in the world, the relationship with goblins, and in a big one, the horrors of war and the monsters it makes.

Our horrid defiances of tragedy and nature enter their second zone!  Talks of war, colonialism, werewolves, and incredibly underwritten villains ahoy after our lovely return to WoWed By Zones!

WoWed By Zones

Today we dive into another second zone, the dwarven lowlands of Loch Modan, where we discuss missed potential, signs of empire, and a set of villains that could have been so much better incorporated into the zone.

WoWed By Zones

And on our appropriately spooky upload date, Ari, Torin, and Eowyn go to go to the undead starting zone of Tirisfal Glades, discussing tone issues, atmosphere, a sense of what it means to be, and the entire existential nonsense behind being a person-who-isn't-a-person-anymore.  We're finally done with starting zones for now!

WoWed By Zones

Ari, Torin, and Eowyn enter a magical elf forest atop a great tree.  We talk a lot more about lore than we usually do in this episode, so be warned of that!

WoWed By Zones

Apologies for the long wait for this one; we've had a few difficulties finding the time due to end-of-summer stuff. In our third episode, Ari, Torin, and Eowyn tackle Elwynn Forest, the human starting zone, and possibly the least changed by the Cataclysm expansion.  Discussions of conspiracism, atmosphere, and horrible murlocs exist in this episode of WoWed By Zones.

Episode 2: Durotar show art Episode 2: Durotar

WoWed By Zones

Ari and Torin are joined by a wild sister!  Eowyn joins us for the rest of our journey as we enter the brutal land of Durotar, where we talk about patriotism, worldbuilding, and (spoiler alert) a damn fine zone.
